Hello, my name is Connor Crowe and I am a student researcher at Loyola University of New Orleans. I am currently conducting a study on the relationship between ethnic identity and well-being. To participate, you must be over the age of 18 and have two biological parents of different races. If this study interests you, please follow the link below to complete a short survey. It should take no more than 30 minutes. Thank you for your time and consideration! https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/393QPPC

Are you an adult with parents of different races? Please take this survey on ethnic identity and well-being https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/393QPPC (I think this should be 130 characters, thank you so much for your help!)

I wrote a private message on the League blog but I don’t think I posted it right because I don’t think anyone’s seen it. I wrote to the members of our group that I’ve simplified how we manage the league blog. Basically, we no longer have to add new posts to it unless you happen to get a chance. I’ve noticed that there hasn’t been a lot of blogging on it and it may be because it’s a bit tiring to maintain multiple blogs. So I decided to make the blog more of a place where people can get info about our group, a sample of our work, and links to our personal blogs. Not too much different, just hopefully less time consuming. Every one in awhile, I’ll reblog stuff from each member’s personal blogs so readers can get more stuff from us without each of you needing to post unless you get a chance. How does that sound?

Great, i just dis covered your site, we’ve come a long way bebe
When younger people use to ask me what are you, polynesian, ieast inie, hawaian, siamese, pacific islander?, i’d reply i’m the pot that melted, as in america the great melting pot.
Unlike my mum, who would say when showing photos of lily whit or native amer. family members and all who “passed” into the mainstream, “if you have one drop your black, i refuse to deny any of my bloodline- hebrew-african eur-asian( the native americans considered asian, although were until mixed – very “negroid appearing pacific islanders types).
For the past 35yrs. i have quietly litigated my “New root race” heritage by checking all applicable boxes on all leal forms, applications etc. (the clerk often changes them – in front of me)
I was reared in both worlds in cleveland ohio in the 50s,60s, thus loved and abused by all three species; it was when my sisters by another mother became of age and were so lost as to whom they belonged, because to be ‘accepted” in both-all the groups you have to deny one and beccome locked into whatever the current mindset/agenda of the groups priorities, and i have always refused, We are Not a Fixee people-as are many, WE are fluid, a bridge to all peoples, our reason for being brought forth at this time.
My spelling has become horrid due to blood glucose issues, and i’m too old to care, so bear w/ me, as typing is not my forte’
schell and i’m lazy.lol

As a First Generation Korean Adoptee, I can relate in so many ways to the issues, strengths and uniqueness that “mixed” individuals face and embody each day of their lives. I am very pleased that you found my blog in order that I could find your space. I will be spending ample time over here reading to my heart’s content ~ Thank you ~ junemoon
